If you are going to stay in Flaam, Freitham is a good option.
Pros:

Location of this hotel was great. Very walkable to all things and easy to get around. Hotel is very attractive and clean. I appreciated the accessible room on the ground floor. Breakfast was very good with lots of options. Room was comfortable and had a nice area for sitting outside.

Cons:

It's expensive, but that's this area. Front desk staff were fine, but not overly friendly or welcoming. Restaurant staff were super friendly but I would say the food was just okay (outside of breakfast).

Étape entre l’arrivée en train et le départ en bateau
Pros:

Hôtel très bien placé, proche du port, de la gare, Confortable mais très cher. Le rapport qualité prix n’est pas là. Même pour la Norvège.
Le petit déjeuner, ainsi que le buffet pour le repas du soir sont très bons.

Cons:

Le rapport qualité prix n’est pas là. Même pour la Norvège.

Pros:

Location is perfect. Staffs are friendly.

Cons:

Room facilities are far below what you paid for. The double bed is so small and not able to fit for two adults.

Breakfast selection is limited and quality are just fair- lower Even not as good as we stayed a 3 star hotels in oslo.

Be honestly, the hotel is over rated. It is only becuase of the history, not the hotel quality itself

Comfortable stay at the Fretheim Hotel.
Pros:

A fine hotel with great views and friendly, helpful staff.

Cons:

Hotel, apparently, unable to combine separate bookings into one room, given one week's notice. Some noise permeates from rooms above. Over priced.

High standard beautiful hotel in an amazing location
Pros:

Beautiful hotel of a high standard. Our "standard" room had fantastic views over the fjord/harbour. Breakfast was good.

Cons:

It is expensive (compared to our other stays in Norway) but worth the extra for the location.
